Services
Lymphatic Drainage
This gentle manual technique stimulates lymph fluid movement to reduce swelling and enhance immune function. Ideal for clients with chronic inflammation, post-surgical recovery needs, or systemic toxicity concerns. Our specialized approach addresses both localized and whole-body lymphatic system optimization.
Craniosacral Therapy
Subtle manipulation of cerebrospinal fluid rhythms to release tension and improve nervous system function. Particularly effective for headache relief, TMJ disorders, and trauma recovery. Sessions promote deep relaxation while addressing structural and sensory imbalances through precise fascial manipulation.
Myo-Fascial Massage
Targeted soft tissue manipulation addresses chronic pain patterns and postural imbalances. Combines sustained pressure with mobilization techniques to release fascial restrictions. Benefits include improved range of motion, reduced muscular tension, and enhanced circulation for accelerated healing.

Questions
What conditions respond best to lymphatic drainage therapy?
Lymphatic drainage effectively addresses chronic inflammation, post-surgical swelling, allergies, digestive issues, and systemic toxicity concerns through gentle manual stimulation of lymphatic circulation.
How does craniosacral therapy differ from traditional massage?
This specialized technique focuses on cerebrospinal fluid rhythms to release deep tissue tension and nervous system imbalances, providing headache relief and trauma recovery benefits through subtle, non-invasive manipulation.
Are sliding scale appointments available?
Yes, we offer flexible pricing options through our Friends Fund program to ensure accessibility for clients with financial constraints while maintaining professional service standards.
What should I wear for my massage session?
Clients should wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing without restrictive elements. Many techniques can be performed while fully clothed, eliminating the need for undressing.
Do you accept insurance for massage therapy sessions?
While we don't process insurance directly, we provide documentation for potential reimbursement. We recommend discussing manual therapy benefits with your healthcare provider for possible prescription requirements.
